·I think a recent party guest stole my watch. I'm guessing whomever took it will unload it. Should I bother notifying local jewelry stores with details and serial number? Or would that be a waste of time?
What do I do about my stolen Seamaster Pro?

··Ash @ ΩFI'd post the serial here, as well as notify the police. Not sure about where you are but in Australia the police keep a list of serial numbers and compare it to Pawn shop / second hand store records fishing for hits.

·Sorry about the loss... nothing worse than getting ripped off, its such a sickening feeling. I'd report it stolen, drop off a note to the local stores that advertise they buy used watches, probably won't result in anything but it's what you can do and proactive and you will feel better about taking some kind of action.
Other than that, drink heavily, and buy a new watch are my only other suggestions.

··Mrs Nataf's Other SonDefinitely report it. Is there a way to get this back to Omega, in case it ever goes back to them as a repair?

··Omega Collector / HunterReport it to the local police as they will then check pawn shops for the watch. Only Rolex has the stolen registry as far as I know.

Damn, it's not just the loss of the watch, it's also the loss of trust in somebody you may know.
Home insurance?

·I feel your pain.
My almost new AT Day-Date was stolen last week. I phoned to Omega service center and they inserted watch number to their database and marked it as stolen. I did not asked but I hope that this is the worlds database. It's not much but this is what you can do.

Great to know that Omega does this. It will only help if the new "owner" sends it in for service.

··Omega Qualified WatchmakerWell you do live in the city in Canada populated by the most crooks! Were Harper, Duffy, or Wallin at your party? Maybe Nigel will cut you a cheque too. 😉
Seriously, sorry to hear this - a call to the police is the first thing. I would also call the pawn shops around town and let them know the serial number if someone tries to sell it to them.
Hope you get it back mate.
Cheers, Al

··@ ΩFJust goes to show - if it's not on your wrist it needs to be in a safe or at the bank.
Sad that you can't trust people in your own home.

Should not take that much of a hit. Last thing you want to do is think that you can't claim for something After paying your premium. (Otherwise don't pay premiums and bank the money each year)
Good luck with it..

·I'm not trying to be flippant but you should have another party and invite the same exact people.
you can narrow down your suspects by the person(s) who declines or doesn't show up.
